Live Facial Recognition is being increasingly used by Police forces around England and Wales.

It allows the Police to recognise people very rapidly - but how accurate is it? How biased? How should we evaluate the benefits it could bring, against the privacy harms it could cause? 

Join us to hear from former Metropolitan Police Commissioner Lord Bernard Hogan Howe - who argues for increased use of facial recognition in UK policing. He’ll be talking to IF Director Julian Huppert, who served on the House of Commons Home Affairs Select Committee, and used to be on Liberty’s National Council.
